Notes

  • While the radius scales linearly, the area of the Warbanner's effect scales quadratically (Area = π ⋅ r²). This means that in multiplayer, it is stronger to stack this item on one player rather than across several players. 2 players with 1 Warbanner each would cover 1,608.5 square meters, while 1 player with 2 Warbanners would cover 1809.6 square meters.
  • The banner's area of effect is indicated by a large yellow sphere.
  • The Warbanner works well for Engineer Engineer'sEngineerEngineerThe Engineer is a unique class that requires planning and positioning to be successful.

Lore

Heavy losses were expected – after all, the invaders were as cunning as they were deadly. 

The dust had at last settled. The Golems had returned to the earth, and the Lemurians had returned to their tunnels. It was a long and grueling battle, but they had won. The invaders had been purged.

The only proof of their last stand was a single banner, fluttering in the wind, flying over a mountain of corpses.
